Former Club of Rome co-president: In order "to reach as many [UN Agenda 2030] Sustainable Development Goals" as possible, a "Giant Leap" is necessary, which—among other things—requires "transforming the food system" and "transitioning to clean energy". "We see a switch to healthier, plant-based diets... We half carbon dioxide emissions every decade to reach Net Zero by 2050. The economic model everywhere is circular... Material consumption of unsustainable resources is reined in, fossil energy phased out, and we see a significant redistribution of wealth... We introduce a universal basic dividend, operating like a universal basic income." "We know the Giant Leap will be disruptive—we're talking about a complete shake-up... It will create shocks." It's almost reminiscent of Mao Zedong's 'Great Leap Forward'—which killed up to 55 million people, in arguably the worst famine in human history—don't you think? 🙄
